Hate

Or

Ten Reasons why Ginny Weasley Hates Susan Bones

Ginny Weasley hated Susan Bones with every fiber of her being. Now, if she told this to someone right out of the blue they would probably look at her like she was crazy. No one could come up with a legitimate reason to hate Susan Bones, not even the bigots of the Slytherins, seeing as yelling "She's a filthy blood traitor!" doesn't count as legitimate.

Now this begs the question, just why did Ginny Weasley hate Susan Bones with such passion?

The tenth reason, she would list, would be the fact that unlike her, Susan Bones did not stop developing in the chest area at the age of twelve, those damn things on her chest were obvious even while wearing the bulky robes of a Hogwarts student.

Ninth would be that, also unlike Ginny Weasley, Susan Bones had some nice womanly curves on the bottom half as well, though her tummy was as trim as anyone could wish for and there was no excess padding or baby fat.

Eighth on the list would be the fact that, unlike Ginny Weasley, Susan Bones' hair was a deep, lustrous red instead of something that looked like it got its coloring from an Orangutan.

Seventh she would profess is the fact that unlike her own, Susan Bones' lips were fully and plump, and looked amazing when she pouted.

Sixth absolutely had to be that her bright, clear blue eyes always seemed to be so damn fully of life and laughter, she hated those eyes.

Fifth could quite possibly be that, unlike one Ginny Weasley, Susan Bones came from money. Her Aunt was the director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement and pulled down more in a month than Arthur Weasley made in a whole year along with all of the traditional Bones investment s that included Dragon Hide armor. The Bones women, while fighting for the side of the Light in the war, had still made huge profits even while cutting their prices to make replacing vests that had been hit with powerful curses easier on Aurors and wealthy non Death Eater Purebloods. No one could accuse Susan Bones of being a gold digger.

Fourth would have to be the fact that Susan Bones was only behind two other girls in her cohort for grades, them being Padma Patil and Hermione Granger. Ginny, while generally getting good marks, was currently ranked at the twelfth spot for females in her own.

Third certainly would be that unlike Ginny herself, Susan Bones didn't seem to have a jealous bone in her body. Harry had made friends with quite a few young women ever since he had vanquished the Dark Lord, not limited to and including Daphne Greengrass, Padma Patil, Tracy Davis and Parvati Patil. Ginny didn't think that she would be able to stand her boyfriend being anywhere near any one of those females un-chaperoned, and she had seen him in their company unescorted numerous times.

Second could be the fact that, right at this moment directly across from her was one Susan Bones, who was busy snuggling up too, and leaning her head on one Harry Potter's shoulder. That damn skirt clinging to her like a second skin and showing off a fantastic yet tasteful amount of toned leg, the blasted sweater that hugged her figure like a wetsuit (Hermione had shown her pictures from her vacation to the Mediterranean) and those damn shoes that undoubtedly made her bum look amazing.

First, Ginny would be able to decide without any hesitation in her mind would have to be the antique and exceedingly expensive and beautiful Clan Potter engagement ring that was currently adorning her finger, and how whenever it glittered in the light it would tease her and taunt her, telling her "this could have been you, and you threw it all away".

Ginny scowled as she watched Harry lean over and whisper something into Susan's ear which prompted her to jump to her feet, sending her prominent assets jiggling in a way that would make Ron stare at her like she was made out of pie, and pull him to his feet. Laughing quietly, the couple proceeded to exit out of the portrait hole, oh how she wished she was there instead of that bitch Bones.

"Harry, Ginny is staring at me with more hate than I've seen since Neville blew of Bellatrix's head."

Harry Potter grinned down at his Fiancé and lightly nipped her earlobe, "well, how about we get out of here and do something that would give her the emotions needed to perform an Avada Kedavra if she saw it?"

Laughter and lust dancing in her eyes, Susan leapt to her feet and held her hand out for Harry to take, delighting in the way that his eyes darkened and greedily soaked in her form. Pulling him up and leading him from the Gryffindor Common Room on a path to the Room of Requirement, fending off his roaming hands with pleased shudders surprised squeaks.

Susan Bones knew that Ginny Weasley hate her with a burning passion, she on the other hand couldn't thank the girl enough. If Ginny had refused to break up with Harry at the end of his Sixth year, before the summer came and Harry killed the Dark Lord at Bill and Fluer's wedding, she never would have gotten the opportunity to ask him over to her place for lunch, without that opportunity she never would have figured out that Harry is an absolute demon in the sack on top of being the sweetest man on the face of the Earth and thus clung on to him as tight as she could.

Susan Bones had a lot to thank Ginny Weasley for.
